Gracie Abrams released her third album last month, Daughter From Hell, and has given a lengthy interview to Rolling Stone, about her songwriting, her status as a ‘nepo baby’ (she’s the daughter of filmmaker JJ Abrams) and two hugely influential figures in her life.
One of those is her current boyfriend, the actor Paul Mescal, who is currently filming Sam Mendes’ Beatles biopics. As we know, Mescal plays Paul McCartney, and Abrams has witnessed the long hours her partner has put in practicing playing guitar left-handed. “(It’s been) so amazing to witness,” she said. “He’s like an alien. I mean, he’s better at guitar backwards than I have been at guitar my whole life.”
